Applications are invited for one fully funded PhD scholarship at the Department of Economics, University of Southern Denmark. The position is based at SDU’s Esbjerg campus.

The successful candidate will be enrolled in the 5+3 PhD programme. The programme includes a research stay abroad, typically of six months’ duration, and offers a competitive full-time salary.

We aim to appoint the successful candidate as soon as possible, ideally with a start date of 15 January 2027, while remaining flexible regarding the exact timing.

About the Department and Research Environment

The Department of Economics is an international department with a strong tradition of excellence in research and teaching across a wide range of fields within economics. Research, teaching, and outreach activities are organized within five research groups: Econometrics and Data Science; Economic History; Macroeconomics; Microeconomics; and Environmental and Resource Economics. Further information about the department and its research groups is available on the department website.

The PhD student will be affiliated with the Environmental and Resource Economics (ERE) group, which focuses on Environmental and Natural resource economics on a variety of topics, namely ecosystem conservation and use, marine resource use, management and conservation, energy transitions, climate regulation, and interdisciplinary research at the interface between economics and the natural sciences. The group applies economic theory and tools to policy and analysis to provide guidance for more efficient use of environmental and natural resource goods and services.

The position

The successful candidate will become part of an international research environment and work closely with Associate Professors Ana Faria Lopes and Melina Kourantidou. Part of the work will contribute to the BRAVE (Biological Invasions Resolved through Adaptable, Versatile, and Engaging Nature-Based Solutions) project, a Biodiversa+-funded project that investigates the complex ecological and societal challenges associated with invasive species and their management. In particular, the research will contribute to the Danish BRAVE case study on the invasive Pacific oyster in the Wadden Sea, including work on stakeholder preferences, economic values, and trade-offs associated with its management. For further information about the project, please see this link or this link.

The project relies on the application of economic theories, namely non-market valuation and bioeconomic modelling, to investigate the management of invasive species. We welcome candidates with strong quantitative and analytical skills from economics or related disciplines, including candidates with interdisciplinary backgrounds and an interest in environmental and resource management. There will be considerable scope for the PhD student to develop their own research questions within the broader themes of the project.

The successful candidate is expected to contribute to high-quality research within the scope of the project, through both collaborative research and independent work, including a single-authored paper. In addition, the candidate will be involved in teaching and supervision within economics at both undergraduate and graduate levels.

The PhD student will be supervised by Associate Professor Ana Faria Lopes as the main supervisor and will join a research group that includes postdoctoral researcher and research assistants, with access to an international network of collaborators.

The Initiative for Financial Decision-Making (IFDM) at the Stanford Graduate School of Business invites applications for a Postdoctoral Fellow to work with Professor Annamaria Lusardi, the Initiative’s faculty director. This in-person position begins in summer 2027, no later than September 1, 2027. The initial appointment is for one year and may be renewed for a second year subject to performance at or above expectations. A two-year term is strongly preferred.

The fellowship focuses on empirical research in financial literacy and household financial decision-making. Although IFDM is a relatively new initiative, its work draws on more than a decade of research in this field by the Global Financial Literacy Excellence Center (GFLEC), founded by Professor Lusardi. GFLEC has developed tools to measure financial literacy and conducted research that informs financial education programs in the United States and internationally. Over the past three years, IFDM has built on that foundation with research of its own on household financial decisions and financial education, expanding the scope of this shared research agenda.

The fellow will contribute to projects in three related areas:
• Household financial decisions: Study how financial literacy shapes saving, investing, and borrowing choices, and financial well-being outcomes, including how young adults begin investing and build wealth early in life. Projects may also examine how emerging financial products affect the allocation of savings across investments.
• Financial education programs: Evaluate the effects of financial education programs and initiatives on financial knowledge, behavior, and outcomes, including through field experiments.
• Financial education in schools and higher education: Study the availability of financial education courses and related offerings, and the factors shaping their supply and demand.

The fellow will develop academic research within this agenda and work with Professor Lusardi, IFDM’s research director and associate director, coauthors, PhD students, and other postdoctoral fellows. The role combines collaborative and independent research. The fellow will present research progress regularly to Initiative stakeholders and participate in meetings, research lunches, and colloquia. Participation in Stanford seminars and other events is encouraged.

Qualifications
Applicants must have a PhD in Economics or Finance conferred before the appointment begins. Selection will emphasize research excellence in household or personal finance or applied economics and a clear interest in IFDM’s research. Experience in household finance or program evaluation is preferred.

Application materials
For full consideration, submit the materials noted through the JOE Network at the American Economic Association. Proposals received by November 15, 2026 will receive full consideration.

International applicants may be sponsored for J-1 visas. Fellows eligible for OPT are encouraged to use it during the fellowship.

Application Requirements:

• Research statement describing past and planned research and interest in this position
• Letters of Reference
• Research Papers
• CV

Applications are invited for a post-doctoral Research Fellow position in the James M. and Cathleen D. Stone Centre on Wealth Concentration, Inequality and the Economy in the Department of Economics at University College London. This position is available for 1-2 years.

About the Stone Centre

The Stone Centre is co-directed by Professors Imran Rasul and Wendy Carlin. The Centre aims to become a global hub for research and learning that will make wealth concentration and its impacts on innovation and sustainability central to economics education. Education and research are equal partners in the venture. The Stone Centre is pairing up the CORE (Curriculum Open-access Resources in Economics) project, which is transforming economics education around the world, with the research strengths of the UCL Economics Department. The aim is to help shape the next generation of economists, bringing more attention and increasing capacity in both teaching – at all levels – and research to the causes and consequences of wealth concentration and inequality.

Research fellows will work within a team of researchers at the Stone Centre and the Department of Economics at UCL. Their direction of research expertise and interests will relate to broad aims of the Stone Centre. We seek to understand the drivers of wealth concentration, various dimensions of inequality and the interactions of these processes on political outcomes, representation and voice. Research areas in applied microeconomics, macroeconomics and empirical methods will all be considered. We will work with successful applicants to secure the best fit for their research interests and strengths and to encourage them to develop these to mutual advantage, with a particular focus on academic publication in top international journals. Research fellows are also expected to engage with the teaching innovations of the Stone Centre through its close collaboration with CORE.

We welcome applications from students expecting to complete a PhD by August 2027.

Queries about this position should be directed to the Stone Centre Manager, Jane Archer (j.archer@ucl.ac.uk).

Applications are invited for one or more fully funded PhD scholarships at the Department of Economics, University of Southern Denmark, Odense.

Depending on academic qualifications, applicants may be enrolled in either the 4+4 or the 5+3 PhD programme. Both programmes include a research stay abroad, typically of six months’ duration, and offer a competitive full-time salary.

We aim to appoint the successful candidate as soon as possible, ideally with a start date of 15 January 2027, while remaining flexible regarding the exact timing.

About the Department and Research Environment

The Department of Economics is an international department with a strong tradition of excellence in research and teaching across a wide range of fields within economics. Research, teaching, and outreach activities are organized within four research groups: Econometrics and Data Science; Economic History; Macroeconomics; and Microeconomics. Further information about the department and its research groups is available on the department website.

The PhD student will be affiliated with the Historical Economics and Development Group (HEDG), which focuses on Economic History with a strong emphasis on applied microeconomics and causal inference. HEDG is internationally acknowledged as a leading research group and attracts substantial grants and media coverage, as well as publishing books and articles with top outlets.

The position

The successful candidate will become part of an international research environment and work closely with Associate Professor Anthony Wray on Private Foundations, a Carlsberg Foundation-funded project on the roles of private investment and medical education in shaping innovation and inequality in the United States during the early twentieth century. For further information about the project, please see this link.

These are applied microeconomic questions in health, labour, education, and demographic economics, approached with historical data. We are interested in strong applied microeconomists broadly, not only in candidates who already identify as economic historians, and there is scope for the PhD student to develop their own questions within the project.

The successful candidate is expected to contribute to high-quality research within the scope of the project, including independent, single-authored work. In addition, the candidate will be involved in teaching and supervision within economics at both undergraduate and graduate levels.

The PhD student will be supervised by Associate Professor Anthony Wray and will join a research group that includes two postdoctoral researchers and scientific research assistants, with access to an international network of collaborators.

The project has its own GPU environment — university hardware, reserved for this project and its research team. It runs open-weight models locally for large-scale digitisation and data extraction from historical sources, alongside frontier models. We are also building an autonomous workflow for agentic-supported academic research, and the PhD student will have the chance to help develop that workflow.

Applicants’ profile

Applicants should have completed a relevant master’s degree in Economics, Mathematics and Economics, or related disciplines. Qualified candidates currently enrolled in a relevant master’s programme are also welcome to apply. Furthermore, we expect applicants to:

• Have solid knowledge of econometrics and applied quantitative methods, with experience using Python, R, Stata, or similar tools, and be eager to learn and apply new methods.
• Be dedicated, capable of working independently and in cooperation with a PhD supervisor.
• Have strong English skills, both spoken and written.

Applicants should possess or be nearing completion of a PhD in economics and have an interest in applied, policy-oriented research and the ability to write, speak, and present to both technical and non-technical audiences in a clear and concise format. Applicants also should have:

• Strong analytic curiosity and creativity;
• The ability to operate both independently and collaboratively in a multidisciplinary environment;
• Strong critical thinking skills;

As a Research Analyst, you will provide analysis to help develop and evaluate policies, practices, and programs that increase the effectiveness and efficiency of personnel, budgets, and other assets. Major research areas include workforce management and warfighter readiness, energy, health analytics and medical readiness, resource allocation, and facilities infrastructure. Whether through empirical research, modeling and simulation, or combined quantitative and qualitative approaches, we provide our sponsors with objective analyses that directly affect policy and practice. Recent hires who have advanced rapidly have exhibited a strong capacity and interest in applying their skills across a variety of complex problems.

CNA is a nonprofit organization specializing in providing objective analyses to government agencies and foundations. We have conducted such research for the Navy and Marine Corps for over 75 years, and much of our work continues to be with the Department of War.

The Graduate School of International Studies (l’École supérieure d’études internationales – ESEI) at Université Laval, located in Québec City, Canada, is a centre of excellence in multidisciplinary research and teaching on international issues.

ESEI is currently seeking a faculty member whose research focuses on global inequalities and trade. The successful candidate will hold the Research Chair in Global Inequalities and Trade.

The competition is open to candidates from all disciplines relevant to this field. Applications from economics, law, geography, history, sociology, management, political science, and other relevant disciplines are particularly encouraged.

International trade structures power relations among developed countries, emerging economies, and least developed countries, as well as power dynamics among actors within societies. It has a direct impact on the lives of hundreds of millions of people and on their aspirations for a more equitable world. The Chair’s research will examine the reciprocal relationships between the governance of international economic and diplomatic relations, on the one hand, and inequalities, on the other, in the context of the reconfiguration of the emerging world order.

The Chair’s research may address, but is not limited to, the following issues: the role of financial institutions in addressing global economic inequalities (e.g., sovereign debt restructuring); the links between international aid, export-led growth, and human development; the role of sovereign wealth funds and the financialization of the economy in the unequal distribution of wealth and democratic backsliding; the impact of market opening and multinational corporations on local populations; and the preservation of an inclusive multilateral trading system.

In addition to its research activities, the Chair will develop an innovative teaching program based on simulations of negotiations and coordinated action within international organizations working in the fields of international development and trade (IMF, UNDP, WTO, etc.). These initiatives will raise students’ awareness of the importance of multilateral cooperation in reducing inequalities among countries.

A research advisor will support the Chairholder in developing, planning, and submitting research grant applications, while helping to maximize the Chair’s outreach and knowledge mobilization activities. Funding will also be available to support doctoral scholarships associated with the Chair.

The successful candidate will join the Graduate School of International Studies as a regular faculty member beginning June 1, 2027, and no later than September 1, 2027. The appointment may be made at any academic rank, in accordance with the Collective Agreement between Université Laval and the Syndicat des professeurs et professeures de l’Université Laval (SPUL).

Duties include :

• Teaching at the graduate level;

• Supervising graduate students in the context of master’s research papers, master’s theses, and doctoral dissertations;

• Conducting research and publishing on global inequalities and trade;

• Participating in teaching and administrative activities associated with ESEI;

• Performing any other activities provided for under the Collective Agreement between Université Laval and SPUL.

Selection Criteria :

• Ability to teach in French within three years of appointment;

• A PhD in a field relevant to global inequalities and trade;

• Applications from doctoral candidates who are nearing completion of their dissertation will be considered, provided that a letter from the department chair confirming the expected date of dissertation submission or defence is included;

• A strong commitment to multi/interdisciplinary research and teaching, demonstrated through academic training, a research program, teaching experience, or collaborations;

• An excellent research record, including publications in peer-reviewed journals considered among the leading journals in the candidate’s field, or demonstrated potential to develop an excellent research record for candidates at an early career stage;

• University-level teaching experience;

• A record of securing research funding from granting agencies in the candidate’s field, or demonstrated potential to obtain such funding in the near future;

• Ability to teach a graduate-level research methods course. Proficiency in mixed methods would be an asset;

• Demonstrated involvement in national and international research networks would be an asset;

• Research experience in the Global South would be an asset.

Employment Conditions :

• Regular, full-time position;

• Salary commensurate with recognized experience, with benefits, in accordance with the Collective Agreement between Université Laval and SPUL.

Applications :

• Application deadline: October 31, 2026

• Start date: June 1, 2027 (no later than September 1, 2027)

The application file must include:

A. A cover letter demonstrating, in particular, the candidate’s commitment to multi/interdisciplinary research and international studies;

B. A curriculum vitae;

C. A document of no more than two pages describing a five-year research chair program;

Associate Professor or DTU Tenure Track Assistant Professor in Sustainable Travel Behaviour - DTU Management

DTU Management is looking for an Associate Professor or Tenure Track Assistant Professor in Sustainable Travel Behaviour to join our Transportation Science Division.

In this position, you will contribute to research and teaching within travel behaviour and sustainable mobility and become part of an internationally recognized research environment with strong links to policymakers, public authorities, and industry.

The position offers a unique platform to conduct pioneering research in Sustainable Travel Behaviour, connected to DTU’s broader ecosystem of technological knowledge and innovation within the transportation sector.

The Transportation Division is an internationally recognized research environment with strong expertise in transport and mobility. Our interdisciplinary team brings together researchers from fields such as engineering, economics, psychology, data science, computer science, mathematics, and statistics.

We deliver ground-breaking fundamental research as well as research-based insights and tools for policymakers and industry. We collaborate closely with research communities in Denmark and abroad, and with Danish authorities. This includes a large ongoing contract with the Ministry of Transport, under which we provide policy support to solve the great challenges in the transport sector. This includes responsibility for the national travel survey.

Human behaviour and its underlying drivers are embedded throughout our research on transport systems and mobility. Our research creates a foundation for policy support related to key challenges in the sector, such as the green transition, mobility for all user groups, congestion and pressured land use both in large cities and rural settings; equity, safety, and risk; and derived negative externalities of transport.

The overarching focus of the position is understanding human mobility and sustainable travel behaviour when planning transportation systems. This should also be seen in a broader context understanding how urban and rural surroundings influence travel behaviour, and based upon this formulating policies and regulations for more sustainable mobility.

What we offer
We offer an international research environment, with a collegial, team-oriented environment in an elite university based in Greater Copenhagen. We have good opportunities for collaboration, supervision and co-supervision of graduate students and attractive teaching conditions.

Denmark offers abundant funding opportunities for leading edge research from its many private and public research foundations in addition to the EU funding schemes. To support the obtaining of funding, DTU and the department provide highly specialized and individual funding support and guidance depending on your needs and where you are in your career.

Furthermore, Denmark is one of the countries in the world with the highest degree of digitalization, and hence researchers have access to unique longitudinal datasets on households, companies, transport behaviour, land use, etc. DTU has a close collaboration with public authorities, which secures both impacts of research and access to surveys, experimental and register data.

The position is full-time and based at DTU Lyngby campus, just north of Copenhagen. Copenhagen is renowned around the world for its relaxed atmosphere, fantastic restaurants, festivities and high quality of life, being number one on the 2025 Global City quality of life index.

Responsibilities and qualifications
We seek an Associate Professor or Tenure Track Assistant Professor who can advance research and practice on travel behaviour, deepening our understanding of behaviour, preferences, and choices, and their underlying drivers. You have a strong track record in research at an international level.

Over the years, we expect you to develop academic leadership, attract external funding, teach undergraduate and graduate students, strengthen our research-based advice, and contribute to a fruitful environment based on the position. Particular emphasis will be on public sector support, scientific advice, and societal impact on the transport domain.

You will bring the following:

• A PhD in a relevant topic and discipline related to travel behaviour, e.g. from Transportation Science, Social Data Science, Economics, Psychology, Geography or Urban Planning, with a quantitative evidence-oriented profile
• Experience of application areas within the transport domain, possibly related to land use, and a strong publications record in these areas
• Experience with, or a strong interest in, scientific advice and public sector consultancy in the transport domain, along with strong skills in sector collaboration
• A solid national and international network within and beyond academia
• An ambition to push boundaries and define future research agendas that address societal challenges

As a candidate, you should have a high potential for creative and independent research, willingness to collaborate and interact with other researchers, the ability to teach courses at different levels, to engage in scientific advice and to disseminate research in seminars, conferences and in the classroom, as well as to the wider public. You will also be responsible for the teaching of student courses.

DTU employs two working languages: Danish and English. You are expected to be fluent in at least one of these languages, and with time are expected to master both.

As a formal qualification you must hold a PhD degree (or equivalent). If you are applying for the associate professor position you should also have academic qualifications equivalent to those obtained by holding an assistant professorship and documented didactic/pedagogic training.

You will be assessed against the responsibilities and qualifications stated above and the following general criteria:

• Experience and quality of teaching
• Research experience
• Research vision and potential
• International impact and experience
• Societal impact
• Innovativeness, including commercialization and collaboration with industry
• Leadership, collaboration, and interdisciplinary skills
• Communication skills
